So excited about this finish! It is #1 on my
Q3 FAL list as well as my
ALYoF Goal for September. It feels good crossing things off both lists! Also, it is freaking adorable and my daughter is in heaven finally having it completed.

Here it is! I did the twin size of the Hazel Hedgehog pattern which worked out to be 42 different hedgehogs. We decided together (my daughter and I) to do it all in Cotton and Steel basics with Kona solids for the bodies and background. |

Miya had fun picking all her favorite colors and prints for the spines. You can see the quilting pretty well in this shot too. I was going for a kind of spiky meander. Some bits are more spiky than others but I love it anyway. It adds fun texture. |
|
Here's just a fun picture of it flopped over the fence. It was a fun angle I haven't tried before. |
|
I thought these Navy triangles from Color Theory by V. and Co. for Moda was perfect for this quilt! They remind me of the spikes. You can also see my customary tag from yardage by Sweetwater for Moda. It's fun to personalize them like this. |

One more just because I love this angle on quilts. |
That's it for now. I have a few projects I'm also working on but I needed to get this one done for the
ALYoF and
Q3FAL linkups. Thanks for stopping by! I'm also linking up with
TGIFF and
Finish It Up Friday.
Fabulous on all levels: fabric selection, quilt design and beautiful young lady!
